Support NeoGAF

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

But.....the only game releasing in spring is MK8

That's what they WANTED us to think.

 

[shwimpy]

Also, betting NeoGaf servers won't last

Direct and NPD numbers within the same timeframe.

RIP GAF.

 

[ShadowElliot]

I want announcements of DQVII and DQM2!

Especially DQM2 3DS, it sold over 400k in Japan in its first week!

 

[Effect]

The UK one specifies Iwata is presenting it with Shibata. He never does on the US/EU only ones. I suspect the Japanese announcement will come in 2 hours.



The January 2013 one was for Spring too

Missed that part. Thanks. Now we just have to wait to see how long this will be to know if there might be something significant revealed. The longer the better.

 

[nintendoman58]

Finally! About time we got one of these! Once again, I hope for a Shulk announcement in SSB.

.

Just....perfect. No other words can be said.

 

[Lingitiz]

Advance Wars 3DS pls.

 

[bequietdrive]

Wow 10pm? They're normally morning or afternoon. I'll be playing a gig. Godamnit

 

[TheChits]

Just hit me with some release dates and trailers

 

[KojiKnight]

so uh

this is gonna be dk, mario kart, kirby and yoshi, isn't it

You're doing it wrong.... Here, let me fix it for you.

Holy shit!!

With DKTF out that means new Retro title announcement time! Plus EAD has to have the new Zelda teaser!

 

[IlSignorCornetto]

Hype. I expect some release date and maybe one big surprise

 

[iamaustrian]

why should the late broadcasting time (in EU) mean adult content?

 

[Lunar15]

If there's no Japanese direct, there's most likely nothing exciting.

 

[cacildo]

Directs at night.... they changed the usual time........


It must mean something

Something big

 

[anaron]

Please let Soraya Saga retweet this


Edit: damnit, it's end of Spring

 

[Clov]

Expecting a North American release date for Professor Layton Vs Ace Attorney. Hoping for some footage of SMTxFE.

 

[Mlatador]

 

[KingSnake]

11PM CET. So, mature content?

And games released until the end of Spring? SO, there is actually something else except DKC:TF and MK8?

 

[The Bankslammer]

You're doing it wrong.... Here, let me fix it for you.

i don't even have the energy to set unrealistic expectations for myself

 

[Hindl]

Also, betting NeoGaf servers won't last

Perfect. Goddamnit I'm so hyped and scared at the same time this is like going to a concert. Freaking out at the possibility of amazing, mind-blowing announcements, while simultaneously afraid they'll come out and show Wii Fit U2(ft Bono), Wii Music and NintenDogs.

At the very least we'll see DK again, MK8, Yoshi's new Island and maybe Kirby.

Spoiler

Please:
Bayo 1 port
Bayo 2 June release
F-Zero GX HD July
X trailer
Smash

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

If there's no Japanese direct, there's most likely nothing exciting.

Metroid Prime didn't sell too well in Japan.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Well now, Brian Davis from Next Level Games basically copied the Direct tweet:

Stay tuned for #NintendoDirect: Feb 13th at 2 p.m. PST. http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/archive/02-13-2014/ … The Focus: Wii U/3DS games launching by the end of Spring.

https://twitter.com/GameplayDev/status/433696461188911105

... Nah...

 

[bequietdrive]

Game UK tweeted about the Direct. Pretty sure that's a first. I wonder if major bombs will be dropped..

 

[Visualante2]

Expecting disappointment. Can't wait to see what Kohler writes.

 

[Kissenkopf]

why should the late broadcasting time (in EU) mean adult content?

Wondering the same. The time was never a problem to show bayonetta 2 with all its blood and gore.

My guess is, that they hope to get more people to watch the direct at that time.

 

[Sendou]

why should the late broadcasting time (in EU) mean adult content?

It just means that Nintendo realized Europe doesn't love them and thus they can show it here later and at a better time over in the America.

 

[Huff]

Advance wars please

 

[Z3M0G]

About time. It's been quite a while since their last one, correct?

I wonder if they will apologize on camera.

 

[Jucksalbe]

I expect them to finally give more insights to their plans for the Virtual Console. But I always do and they rarely do.

 

[FlynnCL]

Nintendo will announce that they're taking over the European release of Rune Factory 4.

A new Super Smash Bros. newcomer related to Donkey Kong, with Diddy also returning as a veteran.

European release date of Shin Megami Tensei IV.

...I hope.

 

[Linkhero1]

Fuck.

I just remembered what the one game everyone wanted on Wii U. Nintendo is going to reveal Donkey Kong Country Cranky's Fun in the Sun (name is under works) as the third game in the trilogy. Coming this Spring. Possibly around the same time Mario Kart comes out.

 

[Neon_Icarus]

Only spring games? Shit. I guess we won't get anything on X and Bayonetta 2 then.

 

[Zalman]

... Nah...

SHIT

 

[Mr. RPG]

Has any NEW games (or localizations) been announced at one of these "focused" Nintendo Directs?

This Direct is focused on 3DS / Wii U games that are due to arrive by Spring 2014.

 

[dampflokfreund]

Only spring games? Shit. I guess we won't get anything on X and Bayonetta 2 then.

~Focused~

Reggie Fils-Aime ‏@Reggie_NOA
Are you ready for Star Fox? Metroid? Zelda? Bayonetta? Don't be, we're going to announce Cranky Kong in Smash Bros. #NintendoDirect

HYPE!

 

[Jacobi]

I remember the Nintendo business meeting hype. That turned out well

 

[Oersted]

Only spring games? Shit. I guess we won't get anything on X and Bayonetta 2 then.

Could be true. Or bullshit. You never know with Nintendo.

 

[kinggroin]

F zero and Wave Race announcement, with both being released next month

X to be released tomorrow

New Punch-Out in the works

New IPs being created, once for each coming month

Bayonetta 2 to include the first game in the main menu

 

[Victor Omega]

Is it known if they're working on anything at the moment?

 

[Tuck]

Alright Nintendo. Impress me.

Spoiler

Sigh.

 

[Trago]

I for one will KEEP my expectations in check.

I'm betting for one bomb to be dropped tomorrow, with some updates on previously announced titles, and hopefully some OS improvements ( Party chat, true unified account system, etc.)

Also, more VC stuff to combat the drought we'll experience while waiting for Mario Kart.

 

[Always-honest]

I'd be surprised if they are able to surprise me.

 

[Shiggy]

Denpa Men 3
Steel Diver Subwars

Any other "leaked" localisations or titles? The Darksiders Collection won't be coming to Wii U.

 

[Anzan]

.

The best part about this is this kid is just about the right age for the average anti-Nintendo troll.

 

[bluehat9]

New Mario Golf 3DS info, hopefully.

Who am I kidding? It's probably cancelled.
